At Work
Martin returns to his hometown after a decade away. He intends to sell his father's old house and sever ties with the past for good, but an encounter with a former lover and unresolved family secrets alter his course. The quiet streets of a provincial French town become the stage for a slow, inevitable confrontation with what he tried to leave behind. This 2026 drama explores themes of memory, responsibility, and the impossibility of outrunning oneself through an intimate, almost documentary-like narrative.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The director constructs the film with long, contemplative shots where the characters' silence speaks louder than dialogue. The camera follows the protagonists at a respectful distance, like a detached observer.
A perfect pick for admirers of European cinema where internal conflict outweighs external plot. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Valérie Donzelli
